I rolled my eyes at him. I want to stay here. You can go wherever you want!”With that, she got up and hid under the blanket.
He chuckled and sat by the bed.”
I kicked him." Get down. How can you sleep on my bed so casually?"”
" It's not like we haven't been there before." He leaned over and closed his eyes." Rest quickly. We'll set off tomorrow morning."”
My face burned as I remembered the day he stole into my boudoir. His eyes heated up again. At that time, Father could still help me block the soldiers who came to search. Now, I'm the only one left. I must take revenge for them!
When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn. I narrowed my eyes and there was no one beside me. I touched the side. It was already cold.
"Eh? Where did you go so early in the morning?" I got up, put on my clothes, and got off the bed.
There were already people having breakfast downstairs. I sat in a corner and ordered a basket of steamed buns and two bowls of porridge.
Not long after, a fiery red figure came in from outside. She glanced at the table I was sitting at and ran over to take a sip of soup without saying anything.
"What's wrong? Running out so early in the morning?" I gave him a bun.
He took it and said,"Go deal with some trash." Are you done packing?"
I patted the package beside me.
"I can't sit in the carriage anymore.”I looked at the swaying carriage with melancholy. I thought of the terrifying feeling of my butt bumping, and my heart palpitated.
Murong Xi patted his horse and muttered to it,""Poor Reddie. A fat woman said she wanted to ride you with me. You're so thin and weak. How can you withstand her? Sigh…I really feel sorry for you!"
I kicked his butt.”
"Aiyo!" He went around in circles and switched to the other side." Look, look. She doesn't even look like a woman. She's about to be a bride, yet she's still so careless!”
I walked away helplessly and walked forward. He immediately led the horse and chased after me."Ji 'er, Ji' er, I'm just joking. Hurry up and leave. If you don't leave now, it'll be late.”
After saying that, he jumped onto his horse and extended his hand to me."Hurry up and come up!"
I put my hands behind my back and looked up at him."Who's fat again?"
"Let's not talk about this. Let's go."”
"Who's fat…sigh…I don't know who's fat…"
He scratched his head." Aiya, you woman…I'm fat…I'm fat, okay?!" Come up quickly." After saying that, he reached out his hand again.
I raised my head and stretched out my hand.
He pulled me onto the horse. I sat in front, and his hand reached around my waist and grabbed the reins. It was very similar to when we were on the boat. The storm blew over like ten thousand horses, but he still wrapped his arms around my waist and held onto the boat pole. The fragrance of the silktree flowers surrounded me. Slowly, the fragrance of the snow lotus was diluted.
"Ji 'er, the ride is bumpy. If you feel uncomfortable, talk. We'll come down and take a walk.”He raised his head and looked very handsome as he galloped on his horse. He looked a little more heroic than his usual flirtatious appearance.
I touched the Purple Melting Jade in my arms and the jade bracelet beside me. I felt a little more at ease.
Just like that, they walked and stopped. After nearly two months, they finally arrived outside the capital. It was already dusk. My chest felt hot. I let Murong Xi put me down from the horse and slowly walked to the city gate. He saw a person who seemed to be dressed luxuriously but still couldn't let go standing at the door and looking around.
Murong Xi rode his horse over first, and I walked behind him. I felt that after they exchanged a few words, Murong Xi turned around and waited for me.
"These are the servants of the Third Prince's residence.”With that, he got off the horse and let the man lead the horse into the city.
Not too far into the city, they saw a mansion. At a glance, he knew that the owner of the mansion was either rich or noble. It must be the Third Prince's residence.
Sure enough, we entered the residence.
The servant led Murong Xi to the other side. I stood there in a daze until the servant girl beside me urged me to leave.
These days were too surreal. After Murong Xi left my side, I felt like I was fighting alone again. It made me understand that Murong Xi was like a person who could rely on me. Ever since he saved me, I treated him as my life-saving straw. Then, I felt that he was the only one who could help me.
The servant girl brought me to take a bath and prepared some food in the room before leaving.
I sat in the room without eating. It wasn't that he wasn't hungry, but he had seen the desserts he had at the Xia family's house. I can happily give it to Feng Jiaoniang and win her favor. She could eat a few more mouthfuls in front of her mother and make her happy. At this moment, whether I eat or not, only I know whether I am happy or not. No one else will be happy because of this. I don't want to eat it.
The sky gradually darkened. I was a little impatient. I was worried why the prince still refused to see me. Could it be that he was worried about my identity and still didn't believe that I would really give the Purple Melting Jade to him?
I finally couldn't sit still anymore and got up to leave the room. The prince's mansion is very big. I wandered around for a long time, but I still couldn't find the place where the prince should be. The servants here didn't stop me when they saw me, so I wandered around by myself. This prince's manor is very beautiful, but I love the Ice Mysterious Gate. I remember all the flowers and plants there. His favorite place was still the Crescent Pavilion. How could there be such a place in the city?
Finally, I arrived at the entrance of a large hall. It seemed to be the place where the prince usually worked. I was about to walk in when I was stopped by someone."Young Lady, this is the Third Prince's study.”
"Why is your prince still unwilling to see me?" I asked.”
"I don't know," the man replied respectfully.”
I shook my sleeves and saw that no one was paying attention to me, so I could only leave on my own. I wanted to find Murong Xi and discuss a countermeasure.
As he walked, he seemed to have lost his way and didn't know where to go. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past his ears and he immediately turned around."Who is it?"
However, she was held by her waist, and her body seemed to have lost all strength as she went limp. I was shocked and alert. Who would catch me here? "Are they the Crown Prince's men?" I whispered.
That person didn't say anything. He brought me up the wall and avoided the people patrolling the street. We flew into another high house.
That person brought me into the hall. The hall was brightly lit. A man dressed in luxurious clothes sat on the main seat.
I was pressed to the ground and sat down until my butt was cold.
That person is still drinking upstairs and watching me make a fool of myself here. I couldn't help but feel angry. Suddenly, he stood up and walked down. "Miss Xia?"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Xia Tian doesn't know many of the rules of the palace.”I went straight to the point. He never liked to beat around the bush with people. I also know what he wants, but I just don't want to say it.
" Miss Xia, you're so forthright." He reached out to touch my face, but I avoided him." Do you know why I invited you here?”
I muttered to myself and said,"I was invited by the Crown Prince, so of course I don't know. I hope the Crown Prince will tell me directly and let Xia Tian know as soon as possible so that I can do what you want me to do.”
" Heh, since that's the case, I'll be straightforward." He waved his hand and waited for the servants to leave before saying," Hand over the Purple Melting Jade, and I'll guarantee you glory and wealth."”
Hmph, I knew it.
"How did the Crown Prince know that I, this little girl, had that Purple Melted Jade on me?”
"There's nothing this prince can't know about what this prince wants to know.”He stood up proudly and returned to his seat. "Summer, I know what you want." You hope that the Imperial Court can clear your father's name. If you cooperate with me, I can help you."
"How is it, Miss Xia Tian?" He looked at me with a faint smile, but it made me feel uncomfortable all over." Let's work together. After we take down the Third Prince, the throne will be mine. When I unify the country, you'll be rich and noble in this life! What? Hahahaha!"
I secretly spat at him, but I didn't dare to be too presumptuous."The Crown Prince is intelligent, but Xia Tian doesn't have that Purple Melting Jade with him, and he doesn't know where it went. I hope that the Crown Prince will send Xia Tian back to the Third Prince's Mansion…" I saw that his expression was getting worse and worse, so I quickly said," I can go back myself!”
"Xia Tian, don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. I'm afraid Murong Xi won't allow me to kidnap you, right? He will definitely bring the Purple Fusion Jade to seek refuge with me! At that time, I won't be so polite!”The Crown Prince's eyes were filled with a fierce light, scaring me so much that I shivered.
I've been in ancient times for so long, but no one has ever been so fierce to me. In the past, no one dared to do so, but now everyone treats me very well. I didn't expect that a noble person like the Crown Prince could still treat me like this.
I thought about it carefully. The Crown Prince didn't say anything more and just looked at me playfully.
In the end, he couldn't help but say," Miss Xia Tian, let's work together. As long as you give me the Purple Melting Jade, I'll sit on the throne and announce to the world that the Xia family's loyal and loyal members were harmed by a traitor. Then, I'll kill Old Dog Liu. If you're willing, I can also take you in and make you my concubine. Don't you think that's a good idea?"”
My brain was spinning. It was good to cooperate with the Crown Prince. He was the Crown Prince himself, and his foundation in the court was more stable than the Third Prince's. Moreover, when he ascended the throne, the first thing he would do would be to destroy the Liu family because they knew too much about the Crown Prince. No Emperor would allow it.
However, I have already promised Murong Xi to cooperate with the Third Prince. If I give the Purple Melting Jade to the Crown Prince now, then Murong Xi will be letting the Third Prince down. The Crown Prince still has a long time to ascend the throne, so the Third Prince has enough time to deal with Murong Xi and me.
